Work experience

From my first internship to my current position

Employer: Sogedev, by Epsa (France)

  • Assist companies in their search for grants and calls for projects
  • Prepare and draft applications for research and innovation tax credits
  • Lead technical audits for customers
  • Estimate costs to be recovered

Employer: Koppert Biological System (France) et Research Center on Animal Behavior (France)

Location: Toulouse, France

  • Designed and tested methods to improve pollination service and bee colony production
  • Discussed future production and economics insight via internal reports and presentations
  • Study of the bee nutritional behaviour under various challenges (e.g. climate change) and their decision making process
  • Results validation and outreach via scientific paper publication and speech in international conferences
  • Supervision of 9 interns

Employer: University Paul Sabatier (France)

Location: Toulouse, France

  • University project Apicampus (Neocampus sub-project)
  • Determined needs and outcomes to improve bee colonies tracking system
  • Organized multiple public outreach event (conference for general audience, presentation to entrepreneurship, laboratory visit, …)
  • Supervision of 2 interns

Employer: Research Center on Animal Behavior (France)

Location: Toulouse, France

  • Internship: 6 months
  • Topic: “Nutrition and learning in bumblebee Bombus terrestris“
  • Using nutritional geometric framework, I have studied if bumblebee’s workers change their collection of three macronutrients to the presence of brood
  • I have measured the influence of nutrient variation on the survival and cognitive abilities (olfactory and visual learning)

Employer: Research Center on Animal Behavior (France)

Location: Toulouse, France

  • Internship: 3 months
  • Topic: “Nutrition in bumblebee Bombus terrestris“
  • I have studied the collection in protein and sugar in bumblebees (workers and queens) and the effect of extreme diet on their lifespan

Employer: Research Center on Animal Behavior (France)

Location: Toulouse, France

  • Internship: 2 months
  • Topic: “Visual learning in honeybees Apis mellifera“
  • Set up and improved pavlovian experiments on honeybees to study visual learning and discrimination based on the proboscis extension reflex
